If I may ask as a non-pilot: If you're struggling with roll control and your scan has narrowed to the ADI, is it plausible that you miss pitch altogether? Is it possible that he was aware of increasing pitch attitude, but didn't care because 15° was his target all along? Perhaps he only reluctantly and half-heartedly gave in to the PNF's urging "You're climbing, go down" until at 02:10:49 he changed his mind and went for 15°

The second stall warning came at 02:10:51, 2 seconds after he began pulling up again.
It would appear from NeoFit's chart that FD data became available just in time to be suspect as a cause for the second pull up leading to the stall.
